On The Death of Christ

“Now when Mephibosheth, the son of Jonathan, the son of Saul, was come unto David, he fell on his face, and did reverence. And David said, Mephibosheth. And he answered, Behold thy servant! And David said unto him, Fear not: for I will surely shew thee kindness for Jonathan thy father’s sake, and will restore thee all the land of Saul thy father; and thou shalt eat bread at my table continually.” | 2 Samuel 9: 6-7

Christ did not die to win our sympathy, nor did He die to win our friendship.

He died so that a holy God could save our souls.

He died so that “GOD COULD BE JUST AND THE JUSTIFIER OF THE UNGODLY.”

His death is not a PATTERN but a PAYMENT.

His death is not an EXAMPLE, but an ATONEMENT.

His death does not REVIVE US, but it REDEEMS US.

If you are not saved, it is not because His blood is not sufficient nor does not have the power to save, but because you reject this remedy.

God will not pardon without satisfaction by the blood of Christ.

If you ever see this “Fountain opened,” you will cry with the woman of Samaria, “Give me this water, that I thirst no more.”

We Know HIM

”For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous.” | 1 John 5: 3

The Preacher’s Task

Our work has about it a joy and delight that even the angels might envy; but at the same time, it has a sorrow and burden that I do not enjoy, nor do I understand why any man would covet it.

To preach the gospel of my Lord and Master and to tell others of the good hope we have through His grace is “joy unspeakable and full of glory.”

But there is the burden of the Word of God and the response of men which renders us “insufficient for these things.”

1). In preparing to preach, the subject, topic, and text must be revealed.

2). In preparing and preaching, the heart of the preacher must be conditioned for such a task.

3). In the pulpit, fear and anxieties flood the preacher as he realizes what an awesome position and responsibility are his.

When the sermon is ended, and men and women depart to spend eternity in either heaven or hell, depending on whether they have heard and believed or have not heard our gospel, makes us cry with Moses, “Lord, if you go not with us, don’t let us go” into the pulpit.

Brethren, the very least you can do for those who are called to the task of preaching the Word is to PRAY FOR US!

I Am Persuaded

”For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.” | Romans 10: 13

The apostle Paul wrote in 2 Timothy 1: 12, “I know WHOM I have believed, and am persuaded that He is able to keep that which I have committed unto Him against that day.”

That is all that a believer needs to know.

To know Christ, and to know that He has secured everything that needs to be secured concerning eternal salvation for His people, will bring absolute rest to his soul.
